History

From its beginning, when Robert E. Swint, MD, founded Swint Cardiology, Lutheran Medical Group physicians have led the way in medical advances that have contributed to improved outcomes and a better quality of life for patients. The group's commitment to its founder's values and philosophy of placing patient needs first is the key to providing compassionate, personal and professional healthcare to all patients.

In May 2009, Lutheran Health Network formed Lutheran Medical Group. The Heart Center Medical Group was the first physician group to join LMG, an LHN entity that uses a physician-integration approach to patient care instead of the traditional employed-physician model. LMG combines expertise from both organizations to streamline patient-care delivery by:

Removing access barriers.

Creating a seamless flow of patient information across the care spectrum.

Eliminating duplication of services.

1977

Swint Cardiology is founded by Robert E. Swint, MD. Dr. Swint practices in a 400-square-foot office in the Duemling Clinic with one nurse and one secretary.
